SPA Modeler

Thanks Kent & Stuart !

Yes John, the tracks came with instructions, but not really that good ones. Luckily I found an excellent YouTube video showing precisely what is written in the "instructions", helped a lot.

Yes Sir!

Have studied at least 3 different YouTube videos, pretty straight forward to build them!

- Kari

I agree with Bruce - it is a really interesting process and I'm looking forward to seeing yours and Johns come together. Looking at those pieces I do think it'll be well worth the effort.

Thanks guys,

Had planned to start, slowly but surely put the tracks together... The only tool needed for the process is a 0,5 mm drill bit...

Which I of course don't have... anymore...

So, 1st step to order a set of 10 0,5 mm drill bits, recommendation is to have a couple of spare ones, easy to break them.

To be continued...

Those tracks look like the same MFG that made the tracks I bought for Der Schnappër. I found that putting the wire through and then cutting it worked very well during the assembly. I tried cutting lengths before inserting it into the hole to link them together and I ended up losing a lot of little wire pieces LOL

ANYHOW, those tracks are nice and will make a lovely addition.

Thanks Kenny!
They look marvellous and I like the weight. Only today I got those ten 0,5 mm drill bits I had ordered. Of course on a worktrip from today onwards, so no assembling the coming days.
Not really sure how I will approach the assembling.. might be a mixture of different methods

- Kari

Yeah, I'm not sure how to go about assembling the tracks myself but I guess you just have to sit down and start doing it.

It will be a little bit learning by doing but I think after about 400 times I will figure out the best method!
